Basking in Oscars glory, actor Ram Charan landed in Delhi on Friday morning to a grand welcome by his fans at the airport.

A sea of fans carried banners, and posters with his name and photos to welcome the actor back to his country after his film RRR's track Naatu Naatu won 'Best Original' song at the 95th Academy Awards in Los Angeles.

Ram Charan described Naatu Naatu as the song of the people of India.

"I thank all the fans and people from North to South and East to West parts of India for watching RRR and making the Naatu Naatu song a superhit. Naatu Naatu was not our song it was the song of the people of India. It gave us an avenue for the Oscars," he added.

If reports are to be believed, Ram Charan is scheduled to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Delhi.
